Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medicine, and relates to an oxa spiro derivative, a preparation method therefor, and uses thereof in medicines. Particularly, the present invention relates to an oxa spiro derivative represented by formula (I), a preparation method therefor, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the derivative, use thereof as an MOR receptor agonist, and use thereof in the preparation of a medicament for treating and/or preventing pain and pain-related diseases.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Opioid receptor is an important G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), and is the target of combining endogenous opioid peptides and opioid drugs. The activated opioid receptors play a regulatory role on immune of the nervous system and endocrine system. Opioid drugs are the strongest and commonly used central analgesics. Endogenous opioid peptides are naturally occurring opioid-like active substances in mammals. Currently, the known endogenous opioid peptides can be roughly divided into enkephalin, endorphin, dynorphin and nociceptin (Pharmacol Rev 2007; 59: 88-123). There are correspinding opioid receptors in the central nervous system, i.e., µ (MOR), δ (DOR), κ (KOR) receptors and the like. It is found that the strength of analgesic effect of endogenous opioid peptides mainly depends on the expression level of opioid receptors. Opioid receptors are the targets of analgesic effect of opioid drugs and endogenous opioid peptides. Zadina et al found that the binding ability of MOR receptor to morphine peptide 1 is strongest (360 pM). It's 4000 times that of DOR receptor to morphine peptide 1, 15000 times that of KOR receptor to morphine peptide 1. The MOR receptor is the most important opioid receptor that mediates analgesic effect (Science, 2001, 293: 311-315; Biochem Biophys Res Commun 235:567-570; Life Sci 61:PL409-PL415).

[0003] The current studies suggest that GPCR mediates and regulates physiological functions mainly through two pathways: the G protein pathway and the β-arrestin pathway. The G protein signaling pathway can be activated by the binding of the traditional GPCR agonist to the receptor, and includes the second messenger system such as calcium ion, adenyl cyclase (AC), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and on the like. While the β-arrestin pathway is mainly activated by a β-arrestin-biased ligand. The β-arrestin mediated GPCR response mainly includes three aspects: 1) β-arrestin as a negative regulator is reacted with the G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK), thereby causing receptor desensitization in GPCRs, and blocking the transduction of G protein signaling; 2) β-arrestin as a scaffold protein recruits the endocytic protein and induces the endocytosis of GPCR; 3) β-arrestin as an adapter protein forms a complex with GPCR downstream signal molecules, and activates the signal transduction molecules, such as MAPK, Src protein tyrosine kinase and Akt etc. in a G protein independent manner. The differences of ligand stimulation on G protein signaling and/or β-arrestin signaling ultimately determine the ligand-specific cellular biological effects of GPCR.

[0004] MOR is the target of opioid analgesic drugs such as endogenous enkephalin and morphine. Early studies have shown that endogenous enkephalin and opioid drug etorphine can agonize G protein and cause receptor endocytosis, but morphine can not cause receptor endocytosis at all. It is because the ability of morphine on agonizing MOR phosphorylation is too weak, and only trace β-arrestin is recruited on the membrane (Zhang et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 1998, 95 (12): 7157-7162). These ligands exert their physiological functions totally through the G protein signaling pathway rather than the β-arrestin pathway. The study found that after morphine is injected to β-arrestin2 knockout mice, the analgesic effect mediated by G protein signaling is stonger and the duration is longer (Bohn et al., Science, 1999). It is foreseeable that if the negative β-arrestin bias of such ligands is stronger, even they can escape the β-arrestin mediated receptor desensitization, thereby leading to longer G protein signaling durations and more potent analgesic effects.

[0005] Patent applications disclosing MOR agonists include International Patent Application Publication Nos. WO2014022733, WO2008009415, WO2009018169, WO2012129495, WO2001049650, WO2002020481, WO2010051476 and WO2013087589 and the like.

[0006] Long-term use of opioid drugs produces side effects such as tolerance, respiratory depression and constipation. And it has been demonstrated that these side effects are closely related to the function of β-arrestin. In order to reduce the side effects of opioid drugs, the drugs can be designed based on the MOR negative β-arrestin-biased ligand, thereby reducing the β-arrestin mediated side effects and enhancing the therapeutic effect. In a study of the oxo spiro derivatives of the present invention used as selective MOR drugs, Trevena Inc. has found that the activity is lower when the substituent is on the benzylic position of the aryl (J. Med. Chem. 2013, 56, 8019-8031), but after a series of studies , the present inventor has found the oxo spiro derivatives have high activity after the benzylic position is cyclized, Emax was also significantly improved, hERG was also improved significantly, and further studies found that the compound with a single configuration has a higher selectivity for the MOR.
